Can I change Airtel (Delhi/NCR) sim to Airtel (Chennai) without changing number

[Emmanuel Livingstone]

Hi Guys,I have been working in Gurgaon for the past 1 year and using an Airtel Prepaid Connection(Delhi/NCR circle). I have moved to Chennai now and would like to retain the same mobile number. Currently I'm using the same connection with roaming. 1. Is it possible to switch to Airtel Chennai circle so that I can use the same sim card in Chennai without any roaming charges?2. Or should I use the MNP feature to switch to some other operator in Chennai(Does MNP support switching to different states)?Thanks,Livingston

Hi!1. No.2. Not possible.Forget your current no. and pick up a new one OR use it on roaming by paying high charges.

I'm guessing this might be available in the near future.

Free roaming, high broadband speeds in new telecom policy

Yes only after the policy is legislated/when comes in to act.

and then operators would take their own sweet time to make their systems compatible with the new policy.
